Cheap side skirts

Post by majemoss » Wed Sep 12, 2012 1:24 pm

I'm thinking of changing the avenger sides and fitting either the standard trims (are these the same as type s?) or side skirts if anyone has some going relatively cheap. Just so it matches the front lip and flows better.
Thanks
Mark

5th gen' pal!! :!:

I think the Motegi side skirts would look good on your car majemoss.
The standard side skirts are black and not colour coordinated, although I'm sure they can be painted. :?

Hi thanks for replies, sorry I should of said 5th gen :D .
I was just going to say i'm not familiar with the euro ones, i guess there for 4th Gen?
Yeah motegi would be nice would be better if already in B83-m, I quite like the standard side skirts (painted) it gives it that clean look, alot of cars in the US seem the have that look.

You need Motegi side skirts dude. Luckily I have some for sale. 8-)

Edit: The standard side (the thin ones) are all standard on all preludes. :geek:

Cool, what sort of money are you looking for?

I just had a look on the net, OEM sides look too small. As everyone has said Motegi is the way forward.

because OEM is pants, I have OEM side on the car at the moment but the only reason why I'm not putting Motegi on my car is because it will hang lower then my Type-S lip and will spoil the aggressive look. :oops:

The side I have, they are already in your colour but I recommend you get them re-sprayed as there are lot of scratches. One of the tabs that hold it in place (there are total of 3 on each) is broken but it will hold fine with just two. One of the side has a crack but when you get it resprayed it will be easily sorted by your body shop.

I wanted £60 for both of them. They are reserved for someone else at the moment but if I don't get a reply from them I will make a 'for-sale' advert here soon and then you can have them. :)

Ok, well just let us know if they don't go then i'll probably be interested. I need to take the old ones off 1st as I have a feeling they where fitted, then the sides resprayed at the same time.
Because the avenger sides go quite high the original paint underneath may not match in which case I might have to leave them on, thats why I wanted a cheap set just to fit and see what it looks like before I spent money on getting them sprayed etc..... If that makes sense :?
